The Rainmaker by John Grisham Pdf

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • Grisham returns to the courtroom and weaves a riveting tale of legal intrigue and corporate greed. It's summer in Memphis. The sweat is sticking to Rudy Baylor's shirt and creditors are nipping at his heels. Once he had aspirations of breezing through law school and punching his ticket to the good life. Now he doesn't have a job or a prayer ... except for one: an insurance dispute that leaves a family devastated and opens the door for a lawsuit, if Rudy can find a way to file it. By the time Rudy gets to court, a heavyweight corporate defense team is there to meet him. And suddenly he's in over his head, plunged into a nightmare of lies and legal maneuverings. A case that started small is exploding into a thunderous million-dollar war of nerves, skill and outright violence--a fight that could cost one young lawyer his life, or turn him into the biggest rainmaker in the land.... Don’t miss John Grisham’s new book, THE EXCHANGE: AFTER THE FIRM!

The Rainmaker by N. Richard Nash Pdf

This lively play was a 1954 hit on Broadway and a 1956 film. It concerns an elderly Western rancher, his three children, and an itinerant con artist who boasts he can save their drought-parched herd by creating rain. The major focus is on the spinster daughter, Lizzie Curry, who naturally falls for the con artist. The relationship is aided by that fact that Lizzie's father and two brothers seem more worried about her marital prospects than about the drought that's killing their cattle.

The Rainmaker by Jacques Magliolo Pdf

This book will help you find faults and then solutions to establish a solid foundation for your company and, when required, quickly fix, coordinate recovery, raise finance, and advise you on how you can run a profitable business. Global statistics proclaim that 80 percent of new businesses fail within the first 18 months—shocking and true, but preventable. Many entrepreneurs use the poor excuse of undercapitalization, but recently over $1 trillion was invested in new projects. There are more simple and basic reasons for failure. The Rainmaker is thus called on to assist entrepreneurs to succeed past that financial ruin barrier of 18 months by helping them to properly structure and run a company that meets ultimate best practice solutions and systems—which are realistic and competitively better than peers. This book looks at how The Rainmaker is able to bring sunshine to desperate companies, by finding faults and then matching solutions to establish a solid foundation for your company and, when required, quickly fix, coordinate recovery, raise finance, and advise you on how you can run a profitable business. The Rainmaker is a combination of troubleshooter, advisor, mentor, and financier.

Hannah the Rainmaker by Chamberlain Diala Pdf

These are stories of my childhood. African elders pass down family histories through stories. Some stories were told by uncles, some were experiences of family times in the Ndiuhu, Ezeofor village. All the stories are real, but fictionalized to protect the identities of the characters. For three years, as a boy, my family fled to the village as the Biafran War raged. A turbulent time that also provided rich opportunities to immerse in village life with relatives also displaced from various cities. As an inquisitive child, I absorbed these rich ancestral histories.

Awakening the Rainmaker by Nishtha Anand Pdf

As per the Global Gender Gap Report 2021, it will take 267.6 years to close the gender gap in economic participation and opportunity. In 2021, India slipped 28 places and ranked 140th among 156 nations in The Global Gender Gap Index. Our female labour force participation rate stands distressingly low at 22.3 per cent. Only 31 per centof women occupy the Chief Human Resources Officer's role in India, a role which is over-represented by women in other countries, such as the US and South Africa. Less than 3 per cent of Chief Executive Officers in India are women. Like many women in the middle of their career, author Nishtha Anand too was overwhelmed when she first became pregnant with her child-would she also fall off her career trajectory like countless others? She hoped to nudge women, their families and organisations with practical hacks for awakening the rainmaker in them and those around them. Thus was born Awakening the Rainmaker that will motivate women to pursue their dreams and ambitions-with free choices and no guilt. Nishtha captures the gaps and potential solutions across the life cycle of a woman. She includes her learnings and interactions with women from different fields-some of India's most powerful women in business, CEOs, entrepreneurs, award-winning scientists, leading sports personalities and digital influencers. These women had their own mountains to conquer which they did with determination, planning and the right support. Further, she focuses on requisites for upbringing, demeanour and corporate policies and defines a framework for organisations to ensure a gender-neutral ecosystem. Awakening the Rainmaker will inspire during the crossroads of life and lead the way for women to pursue their ambitions.
